Fast Car

This is one helluva fast Golf... 580bhp to be exact. Watch it beat Porsches and Lamborghinis at Hockenheim with ease!

Re: Fast Car

Yes but how many miles per gallon does it do?

Does it have room to take the girlfriend shopping in town?

Is it ecomonical to service?

Is it cheap to ensure?

You see... it's a completely useless car...

Re: Fast Car

My younger brother's car makes about that amount of power now, albeit his is a bit heavier. Still A handful though. He could easily make 100-200bhp more if he had a spare $3-4k

Incidently, this (NOTE contains one small swear word) is what that kind of power (well, a bit more, i'd say about 650bhp, and at the wheel, not crank) can do if you are a numbnuts who can't drive.

Re: Fast Car

It's all very well having all that power.....but having been behind the whell of a Viper (albeit for a very short time) I'm not convinced you'd be able to use it - and if you could get all that power down on the track it's doubtful you'd be able to control it very well.

Re: Fast Car

That's nothing - check out this 802BHP Honda Civic:

Also, on the rollers:

Re: Fast Car

Well they all beat the modded 1.2 novas I see around here with PFY's driving and looking like utter ******s.

But I fail to see what the point is, I mean why have all that power, what use is it?

Wathcing the video it proves nothing, my 120Bhp Vectra could beat a porsche providing like in the video they were slowing down and moving over for me!

Re: Fast Car

I'm sorry but that Golf could not beat that Lamborghini in a straight line or on a track if the Driver didnt slow down and move over.
